A new episode of So You Think You Can Dance premieres Wednesday night, which will send two of the dancers home in preparation for the finale of the show, which will air next week.

Four Dancers Eliminated From 'So You Think You Can Dance' As This Season's All-Stars Named

The members last week faced the challenge of Michael Jackson night. The episode had the dancers performing songs by the late great King of Pop. The Wire reported that the show felt rushed, and the songs performed gave the atmosphere of an "Xscape infomercial." The two dancers who went home after the clips were Rudy and Tanisha. Tanisha was one of the more technical dancers of the group, while Rudy was charming with his performances.

The final six performers will be dancing in front of a returning judge this week, as Christina Applegate joins on as a guest judge. The actress received a Tony Award for her stage work in the Broadway Sweet Charity in 2005.

The Baltimore Sun thinks it will be bad news for Valerie, who was the only dancer to do a ballroom dance in last week's episode. Reality Rewind believes the night will not end well for Casey Askew or Valerie Rockey. This is a weird call to make against Askew, who received the most fan votes during the Michael Jackson performance week, according to the OC Register. Askew performed to the song Xscape, in which he flaunted his signature spins into the choreography of the track.

The OC Register also reported that 18-year-old Jessica Richens was the other dancer to receive the most fan votes last week. Tune in to another episode of So You Think You Can Dance Wednesday night to see who goes home.
